I've been looking through posts and have been Google searching and I still can't find the solution. I can't go on the Internet with my Dell Inspiron 1521 Laptop using Ubuntu 9.04. I can connect to unsecure networks but can't surf the web, and I can't connect to my home network at all. I can connect via Ethernet. I activated the Broadcom driver but it didn't work. I've been reading posts and think this will help.

I'm an Ubuntu noob. Let me know if you need any more info.
